q05 sc3 9.12 sc3 Name:

A team of scientists in SC 130 Physical Science made a series of measurements of the speed of sound on Thursday 18 October. Their measurements are in the table. The team is relying on you to produce a meaningful statistical analysis of their data.

1. __________ Calculate the sample size n.
2. __________ Calculate the minimum (quartile 0).
3. __________ Calculate the first quartile.
4. __________ Calculate the median (quartile 2).
5. __________ Calculate the third quartile.
6. __________ Calculate the maximum (quartile 4).
7. Sketch the box plot for the data on the provided chart.
8. __________ Calculate the mean.
9. __________ Calculate the sample standard deviation.
10. __________ Calculate the sample standard error.
11. __________ Calculate twice sample standard error.
12. __________ Calculate the 95% confidence interval for the population mean μ*
    p(__________ < μ < __________) = 0.95
13. __________ Calculate the Inter-Quartile Range.
14. __________ The actual speed of sound is 348 meters per second. Is 348 meters per second within the 95% confidence interval for the mean?

* Note that this calculation is not taking into account the effect of the small sample size. On Monday the factor of "two" used to multiply the standard error will be adjusted to take into account the sample size n.
